On
this episode of the Raw Islam Podcast, Imam Azhar address the horrific events
that took place in Christchurch, New Zealand, where fifty Muslims were killed
while attending Friday prayer, or Jummah.

Before
the conversation turned to the events in Christchurch, the Imam took a moment
to address the suicides that were happening around the country as well. Some of
the students that survived the Parkland shooting, as well as a parent, took
their own life, which stemmed from Survivor’s Guilt.

Imam
Azhar shares that when he attends the mosque for prayer, until now, his biggest
worry was his children running around the parking lot and how people drive. He
never gave a thought about what happens after the doors close behind him. Now,
that is no longer the case.

We
are then reminded of the hadith that says, “If one part of the body aches, the whole
body aches.” This means that when our brothers and sisters in humanity are in
pain, as good Muslims, we should be in pain too.
